The thing that makes University of South Wales a good place to study is the staff. All staff members from your course, library etc are so helpful and do the up most best to get the support in which you need to thrive. The course lecturers are very friendly and approachable, When giving feedback on work they are more than happy to giver future in depth feedback as they just want you to achieve the best grade that they know you can. I wish I had come to USW first, I feel at home and relaxed when I am on campus,

I like my university because they are really determine not only to educate us but also to develop our character. Every week we are learning new things like last week our course leader was describing us how you should take decisions in future I got to know about grid method of decision making that really amazed me and I wished I knew it earlier. Despite the fact they are doing but yes there is always chances for improvement. I thing they should improve students welcoming programs.

Geography

University rating (4)

Overall a nice uni , I would say not one's typical uni experience because of the location but if you are more of a quiet life kind of person this place is perfect. Even if you like to party , having Pontypridd town centre 15 minute walk away and cardiff 20 minutes on the train means there are plenty of opportunities to find what you are looking for.

TV & Film Set Design BA (Hons)

University rating (5)

University of South Wales is an incredible uni to attend. Student support is also great, however sometimes it feels like accommodation services don't understand how something small, like a broken oven or dodgy boiler can affect us. But they still do a great job and they're only trying to keep up with the vast amount of students they have to deal with. All other aspects of student support that I have experienced has been wonderful. Overall I love University of South Wales and I cannot wait for the future I have here. I wish I get to stay here longer than 3 years.
